Great pixs Ian whay do you think we saw the Ringed Plover giving the Little Ringed Plovers hell?

My guess is that its nesting near by, it's quite common for them to chase each other when nesting.

I think if I remember that this is the same type of glass that Canon used in the 400mm f4 DO lens and there were a lot of complaints over odd things like your experencing with the 300mm.

I've also had a little go at your Carron Crow.

On my screen that looks good.

Can I send you all my images? :lol:

At this stage I am just checking the camera / lens performance and using the iPad for convenience. I am even shooting jpeg at the moment while I find my feet.

Hey perhaps everyone should have a go at the crow?

We could have a 'pimp my crow' competition?:thumbs:

Great shot Iain, may I ask how close you were to the bird you did not crop?

Super shot but sunlight is rough on black birds and shadow detail could be sorted in Photoshop to show a bit more. I think you get best quality for bird pix in overcast weather ie cloudy bright.
Look at Eric's shot of the Sedge Warbler spot on lighting giving good detail.
